[Verse 1]
We’ve drawn the lines, we’ve built the walls
Turned brothers into enemies, forgotten we could fall
History repeating, the cries we never hear
But it’s time to break the silence, wipe away the tears
[Pre-Chorus]
Can’t you see we’re all the same?
Different voices, but one name
Hearts are breaking on both sides
It’s time to turn the tide
---
[Chorus – Anthemic Drop]
Lay down the guns, raise up your hands
We’re stronger together, united we stand
No more fire, no more pain
Let love be louder than the hate
Lay down the guns, look in their eyes
You’ll see the same fear we try to hide
This world is burning, but we can rise—
If we just lay down the guns tonight
---
[Verse 2]
They taught us war was glory, fed us battle cries
But no one wins when mothers weep and children die
There’s power in forgiveness, there's fire in the truth
The future isn’t written—we can shape it through our youth
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Turn the steel into a song
Where we all can sing along
End the hatred, stop the spin
Let the healing now begin
---
[Chorus – Anthemic Drop]
Lay down the guns, raise up your hands
We’re stronger together, united we stand
No more fire, no more pain
Let love be louder than the hate
Lay down the guns, open your soul
We're fighting a war that's taking its toll
This world is burning, but we can rise—
If we just lay down the guns tonight
---
[Bridge – Soft Instrumental Break into Emotional Build-Up]
Can you hear the voices crying?
Echoes of the past, denying
All the hurt we hold inside—
Let it go, let peace arise
---
[Final Chorus – Massive Drop, Reprise with Harmonies]
Lay down the guns, raise up your hands
We’re stronger together, united we stand
No more fire, no more pain
Let love be louder than the hate
Lay down the guns, open your soul
It's not too late to take control
This world is burning, but we can rise—
If we just lay down the guns tonight...
Just lay down the guns tonight
